Virtual reality See your world from a whole new perspective. Vantage now supports head tracking and rendering to HMD headsets, enabling exciting interactive experiences. |
Animated vegetation Vantage’s new “Wind” parameter makes supported Cosmos vegetation assets sway realistically, adding realism to your scenes. |

Rounded edges Every designer knows that there’s no such thing as a perfectly square edge. Now Vantage will smooth sharp edges, eliminating those harsh lines that don’t look quite right. |
Partial opacity Vantage now offers adjustable per-object transparency, enabling smooth transitions between fully opaque and fully transparent states. Perfect for making objects appear/disappear. |
Features
Rendering
- Real-time rendering - Render your scenes in 100% ray traced real-time through the power of DXR-compatible GPUs. Enjoy physically accurate cameras, lights, and materials while retaining game-like interactivity.
- Live Link animation rendering - Get a live raytraced view of your scene, and render animations with a live link from 3ds Max, Maya, SketchUp, Rhino, Revit, and Cinema 4D. Changes you make in your scene will instantly appear in Chaos Vantage.
- Denoising - Employ the Vantage native denoiser designed for real time denoising or the NVIDIA AI Denoiser, when rendering high quality output to automatically remove noise.
- Batch rendering - Easily queue camera views and animation sequence jobs in the render queue.
UI
- Live link - Instantly sync changes done to the scene in your DCC without exporting vrscenes.
- Material workflow - The material tab lets you easily preview, assign, replace, and search materials for an interactive workflow.
- 3D navigation - Navigate and direct your cameras using the popular 3DConnexion SpaceMouse controller.
- HDR Monitor support - Make your projects extra radiant with HDR monitor support.
- Quality presets - Quickly choose between quality and interaction speed with a single slider, allowing you to set Vantage for high-quality rendering or faster feedback.
Animations & special effects
- Deformed meshes - Animate people and vegatation and create richer animations for your project presentations.
- Animation Editor - Easily create animations by dropping cameras, adjusting length, adding transitions and exporting video or image sequences.
- Extended animations - Take even more .vrscene animation effects into Vantage. From flickering and fading lights to animating the tiling offset, your animated materials, textures, and lights now work seamlessly in Vantage.
- Scattering fog - Set the mood for your scenes with realistic environmental effects such as god rays, light shafts through windows, streetlights, with volumetric fog with realistic light scattering.
Lighting
- Global Illumination - Vantage GI is developed to provide maximum lighting accuracy at interactive rendering speed.
- Ambient occlusion - Add detail to your renderings with contact shadows using raytraced ambient occlusion.
- Geolocated time of day - Perform accurate light studies by quickly and easily setting up the sun for a given date, time and location. Create daylight time-lapse animations with minimum effort.
- Sun & Sky - Render realistic daylight for any hour of the day and create any type of cloudy sky with the user-friendly yet powerful procedural cloud system.
- Accurate lights - From physically accurate Area lights, to IES lights with real world measured light distribution, to simplified point and spot lights, Vantage renders your lights with raytraced accuracy.
- Light instancing - Light instances are preserved and can be controlled easily.
- Light creation and placement - You can now create various types of lights directly in Vantage. Use the advanced placement options to achieve lookdev directly in Vantage without any DCC dependency.
- NVIDIA RTXDI - Add plenty of dynamic lights to your scene without worrying about performance or resource constraints. Vantage implements NVIDIA RTXDI with its Direct light reservoir sampling feature.
Camera
- Scene states - Assign different light setups, materials, object transformation and post-process looks to different cameras. Easily recall and send them for batch rendering.
- Real-world cameras - Use real world camera parameters and work like a virtual photographer - add depth of field and motion blur to your renders.
- Auto Exposure - The camera exposure adjusts automatically as you navigate in your scene.
- Bloom effect - Add the popular lens effect to simulate the real-world interaction between the light sources and the camera.
- Overlays - Composition guides overlays make it easier to find the perfect frame.
- Orthographic cameras - Easily create top-down or facade renderings with the orthographic camera projection.
Materials & textures
- Shading support - Support for Clear coat in V-Ray Material, V-Ray 2 Sided Material, Glossy Fresnel reflections, Substance textures, V-Ray MultiSubTex, MultiTexture, ForestColor, Normal maps, and more.
- One-click clay override - The powerful Clay option significantly streamlines the material overrides process when setting up lighting or presenting early designs.
- Material Coat - Add reflective coating to your material to achieve effects like varnished wood or metallic paint.
- Multiple UV channels - Enrich your projects by creating sophisticated materials such as stacking labels or adding decals with newly added support for multiple UV channels.
- Dynamic textures - Vantage automatically resizes the scene textures and uses the most optimal size. This greatly improves memory efficiency and allows you to load even larger scenes.
- Normal maps - Add depth detail like bumps and dents to improve the realism of your surface material.
- Image sequences as textures - Turn the TV on or light up the fireplace by using image file lists to animate textures.
- Randomizer - Remove repeating patterns and add more realism to your textures using randomization controls.
Geometry
- Chaos Cosmos integration - A collection of high-quality, render-ready 3D assets, HDR images and materials that quickly add believable entourage to your interior or exterior scene.
